Topic: headers on eBay
in Forum: C3 For Sale/Wanted Archive
Hey,
i'm new member from Belgium.I bought for my 1970 350/350 headers from www.quicksilverexhausts.com as they only replace the iron castings and i can keep the already installed side-pipes ( model '69) .
Quicksilver is from the United Kingdom.
When they arrive and installed i sent a picture .
Hallo 74-454
yes, indeed on there site there are no pictures of the headers. I recieved them with inquiry.You can see them on my site www.vette.be ( i must make work of it , to show directly the pictures in the site but don't still now how ... )
I have indeed a company . We make heat exchangers, air batteries and pressure vessels for Belgium chemical and petrochemical industries.( picture on the site of some of my welders ).
There are no stupid questions, only stupid answers...!In Belgium we speak flemisch and french .I'm flemisch , the 1/2 part of the country at the side of the sea.
A lot of vettes ? I don't know. You never see one on the road. Some are collected and just used i suppose for sunday-meetings.I will drive mine more !just bought the car a few months ago.
On 11-12 febr there is a American Supercars exibition in Gent , they asked me to show my car over there.I put pictures on my site , see how many there are !
see you

You are lucky guys ! as a see prices you pay.... The headers i bought cost a good 1000 euro's witch are more than 1200 $ .
I also have seen it buying tyres at tirerack.Here in Belgium a good tyre cost around 150 $ and the Firestones Firehawk Indy 500 i bought in the US : 70 $ ! Ofcourse shipping costs and taxes added it so i payed about the same as from here. But those tyres are not imported in europe. Neither are the BFGoodrich.Nobody over here had tyres in 225,235 or 255 for 15" wheels. We al drive 17" or larger wheels.....just very small cars on 15" with max 175 tyres on it.
No wonder you can do burn outs : 70 $ a tyre...
Sorry , i don't see a frame on the engine pics. ??? Remenber,those pics are from Quicksilverexhausts sent to me with their quotation as i asked them if the steering box and plugs clearence are OK.
Just the pics of the car , that's mine.( and my son's daughter !)
The headers arrived today , so i will install them in the weekend. I take pictures and put them on www.vette.be. Just in the office as i was getting the gaskets some 25 miles from Maldegem at Stekene : www.speedshop.be . They have a lot off your performance parts , as i put on my '92 Harley Fatboy Edelbrock heads, pistons and manifold. My friends with stock Harleys must admit they can't follow...
have a nice weekend and take your sharks on the road !
Hallo,
they are installed and the car really pulls... ! after serieus porting job as Quicksilverexhausts polish the exterior but have alot of interior over-welding.Only problem : the spark plugs.For some you need 2 fingers and are the other in the way, for others you needs 12 fingers...
also removed the choke tower as i don't use any choke item.
